About the book

A p.g. Wodehouse novelnnlady maud, the spirited young daughter of the earl of marshmoreton, is confined to her home, belpher castle in hampshire, under aunt's orders because of an unfortunate infatuation. Enter our hero, george bevan, an american who writes songs for musicals and is so smitten with maud that he descends on hampshire's rolling acres to see off his rival and claim her heart. Meanwhile, in the great wodehousian tradition, the earl of marshmoreton just wants a quiet life pottering in his garden, supported by his portly butler keggs and free from the demands of his bossy sister and his silly-ass son.nnin a sunny story which involves chorus-girls, the theatre and a ball at the castle during a two-week house-party, wodehouse deftly unties all the knots which he had so cleverly tied around his characters in the first place.
